diana, over two months ago, gave us a
pleasant time during the three days and
four nights spent there.
The Bchillings had got over the worst
OF the hOmesick period and were found
all we'll, the three boys attending school
and well pleased Herewith, and the lit
tie ive.year-old girl, Ruth, having got
over the measles, was active at home
and around among the good Geighbore.
Mr.. Schilling Is engaged with the
Goshen WO0llen Mills, prosperous con-
Germ under the management OF Mr.. Jas.
Kerstetter, with whom, and his interest
ing family, we became acquainted.
These mills have three sets Of card ma
chimes, and run some thirty power
looms, making underwear speciality.
Goshen Is fine town Of Elk thousand
lnhRbltants, the county seat Of Elkhart
county and is surrounded with beauti-
iul and fertile country. Mr.. Adam HRr-
mon, a brother Of Jacob Harmon Of
Plain township three miles from Can
ton, took US around In his buggy, thus
enabling us to enjoy the sights and the
grand prospects for bountlful crops.
The first man In Goshen we reeogniz-
ed and who recognized Us, was Reverend
Baechler Of the Lutheran church. Years
ago Mr.. Baechler had charge at Ber-
lin, this county. he has been In Goshen
for number Of years and as ever is de-
voted to his duties, and Is accordingly
appreciated.
Reverend hartman Is the minister Of
the Reformed English church In Goshen,
and was married In Canton some years
ago, his wife being the only daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Benjamin Conrad, who
are low In Goshen, visiting at the Fart
mans. OF course we met Mr.. and Mrs,
hartman, for We were present at their
wedding.
William Beane, ESQ, Of the Goshen
Democrat, who has been long In the ser
vice, dropped In to see Us the very first
evening. Mr.. Beane Is q live Democrat
and q genial gentleman, and publishes
q paper accordingly. he is familiarly
known as "BIlly Beane," and he re-
spends with agreeable RlRcrity to famil-
IN brother Beane's Democracy nor In his
pleasant personality. Long may he
float, and float his standard sheet.
Henry Bemend derfer, former Canton
ian, lives on his fine farm three miles
north OF Goshen. Our friend MIR. Hsr-
mon drove Us out there on Monday, and
Mr.. B. and two daughters were just
ready to drive to town to attend the
Decoration services. Mrs. Bemender-
| fer's maiden name was Prince, a sister
Of George and the late William Prince,
Mr.. Bemenderfer, year or so ago, was
the Democratic candidate for County
Commissioner, and was counted out by
the judges at one poll, refusing to count
two Of his votes on some pretense.
Elkhsrt is strong Republican C0un-
ty, but nevertheless has Democratic
County Auditor serving his third term
All this shows some good sense prevail
ing thereaway.
Several leading business men In
Goshen are former Stark county and
Canton boys. Among these are Mr.. Min
mich, Oliver Cunningham and Mr.,
Peters. Mr.. FOeht, also q prominent
business citizen, was from Upper San
dusky. 1t Is evident Ohio is largely
represented In Indiana.
One Of the p easing recollecti0ns Of
Goshen was visit at the fine residence
Of General and Mrs. HasCall. This was
especially enjoyable ss the General Is a
cultured, h0spitable gentleman and his
wife is we'll accomplished to grace the
elegant mansion. Mrs. HascalI ia q Can
t0nian and cherIshes warm regard for
the old town and her friends, May the
General and his wife live long to enjoy
their happy home.
AT some future time we hope to spend
more time with the friends at Goshen.
